E-Book Overview

Overviews the theoretical principles and practical methods underlying the DOE Human Genome Project and modern molecular genetics and biotechnology. The book begins with a review of the basic properties of DNA and the chromosomes that package it in cells. Cantor and Smith (biomedical engineering, Boston University) then describe the three main techniques used in DNA analysis< -="">hybridization, polymerase chain reaction, and electrophoresis< -="">and explore DNA mapping in its many different forms. For chemists, biologists, computer scientists, engineers, and physicians.
